My favorite example of bad HTML coding (so far):
Hey, we have far fewer errors than anyone else! Must be the fantastic excellence of our Cambridge living!

Barf!
So who does your web mastering?
I do mine strictly a cappella with FrontPage, no professional help at all, just pasting-in new items as they come up.
BTW, I've found copies, or scanned-in, data sheets for my standard (commercial) product designs.
I have yet to decide what else is publishable without NDA conflicts.

Well, since w3c.org is The WorldWide Web Consortium (the guardians of the HTML standard), you either are in compliance or you are generating quasi-HTML. . .
You have it backwards: Opera 2's incompatibility with the HTML *standard*.

That just means they didn't stay in production long enough. Right now I've got a problem with a connector I designed in, in 1996. The maker has "impoved" them or maybe its because the guy who knew when to kick the machine retired.
Yesterday, I had an issue with a CD4000 part designed in in 1978. The smooth handling of ECR-ECOs is an important part of any system.
I think I'll just retire before the lead free mess hits. :)

Win *does* like to yank your Massa2shits-hating chain. . .
Which (like other M$ products that produce "HTML" output) generates unnecessarily verbose code (not great--even if you're getting a bargain on bandwidth). That code is also NOT necessarily going to render in all browsers. http://216.239.57.104/search?q=cache:HfqzeGpwES8J:cs195.ummissoula.net/week9.html+FrontPage-is-restricted-to-Microsoft-only-solutions+FrontPage-is-notorious-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-Internet-Explorer-*-bloated-*-*-*-unnecessary-*-code http://216.239.63.104/search?q=cache:9F-IeVdkou4J:

Not nearly as much as I like yanking Win's ;-)

Can I import what I have in FrontPage into Dreamweaver and clean it up?

Not having bothered with either, I can't speak to specifics of automated clean-up. The last item in the Encyclopedia article to which I linked talks about filters being available to do that. (It mentions WinWord specifically).
If Dreamweaver won't, it shouldn't be difficut to get something that will:
Looks like "validator" is more BS than fact.
A quick look with UltraEdit shows the attributes reported as "no attribute" ARE there, they're just turned OFF. I do no fancy/smancy shit on my website.
(I personally use Firefox with NoScript allowing only select pages to run javascript: banks, credit cards, bill paying, etc.)
However, if anyone finds a viewing issue with their browser, please let me know, listing what error messages/viewing problems you see, I'll look into it.

We're supposed to get a cold snap in NE in mid Sept., followed by a week or two of Indian Summer. This year no cold snap, all Indian Summer, continuing till now. Tonight a change begins, rain and cold, down to a low of 48 at night by early next week. What a joke, we *need* a bit of serious "cold" to switch gears. How else can we get ready for glorious white snow next January?

Validator is VERY picky. But it's best to eliminate as many errors as possible. I run the ISCE web site using Dreamweaver, which is also super-critical. It flags errors that I can't possibly do anything about. Most of them are about incompatibility with Opera 2, but I don't know anyone who uses that. So, if any Opera 2 user likes to tell me whether they have problems with any of the ISCE pages, I would be grateful.

Jeezis! If you have somebody who can read HTML, you could import it into NOTEPAD and clean it up! I've never seen as crappy of "HTML" as the crap that comes out of frontpage. Except, maybe, if you're trying to use Word.
Good Luck! Rich
thats quantum inturbulance for you.
hmmm, sorry but Guy Macaroon has zilltch, zero, nada errors, last time I looked. (this is really sad, chechicking out websites for errorses)
How was the Ig noble stuff?

Yes, but it goes postal over even minor faults. It should categorize errors into 'serious' and 'minor'.
**I** don't have it backwards, it's Dreamweaver that flags the 'errors'.-- Regards, John Woodgate, OOO - Own Opinions Only. If everything has been designed, a god designed evolution by natural selection. http://www.jmwa.demon.co.uk Also see http://www.isce.org.uk

If it claims to be .html (or .htm of course), yes.
